Why does he need a- … oh
An Ode to Eliot Waugh's hair
1$ flea market score. Tiny glass 1960s perfume bottles. I love them.
Can you swap their heads ?
omg you can
Their meeting was foretold in the ancient texts
My mom spent like four months embroidering this on and off. She asked me to post it for her here! It's her first time making fanart, and also kind of her first time embroidering anything? I'll read any comments I get out to her.
This is so beautiful! I love the little beams of light! So delicate.
WELCOME TO THE INAUGURAL PEACHES AND PLUMS BIG BANG EVENT!
What does that mean? Well, the short answer is a Magician’s Big Bang. The longer answer is probably best answered in our Rules and FAQ page. That’s where you’ll find all the details on what a Big Bang means, at least in this context. Other fandoms and events may have different interpretations, so please, really, check out the FAQ.
There, now that you’ve done that and have some idea what THIS Big Bang is about, in general terms, we can get into the smaller details.
For our opening we’ve decided to run a Reverse Bang. There are several reasons for that, most of which fall on the modding side of things, but also because it’s a smaller commitment which makes it great for a starter. What that actually means is that artists will sign up first. They will submit between one and two new original works. Each work will go into a list of works for the event, and then writers will sign up and submit a list of which works they would like to write a 10k+ work inspired by. Artists and writers will then be paired up based on those selections. Now, Artists, this doesn’t mean that you can’t submit more art for your writer's work, if you so choose, but it isn’t required. Just the original work, which can be tweaked with the writer's work if so desired, but again, isn’t required. You could technically be done once your art is submitted to the selection pool. It is lovely community, though, to be around for your writer to at the very least toss some ideas at, or pick your brain about your artwork. And just to chat with other creators in general.
Writers, your job, once you’ve been given a partner, is to create a fic inspired by that piece of art. For a Reverse Bang we’ve lowered the required word count to a 10k minimum, which is a large part of why we decided to start with a Reverse Bang. Something a little smaller to let everyone get the feel for the event.
We will set up lines of communication between each set of partners for this event, be that email or discord. So please be prepared to offer up one if not both of those methods of communication for your partner.
And that’s about it. As the FAQ says, if you have any other questions please reach out, either here on tumblr or by emailing the mods at peachesandplumsbigbang @ gmail.com .

why are time loops always only like 1 day long?
the real horror is a months or years long time loop. no speedrunning your torture here. you have to sit with the consequences of your actions for a loooong time before the release of knowing the consequences and actions have been erased.
but oh, all the actions and consequences are gone. those relationships you built? empty. you can never build them again without the constant guilt of knowing that it's not as real the second, third, thirtieth time when you already know all their secrets and they none of yours.
but you can't hide. you can't isolate yourself because what if this is the time the loop breaks and then what? years gone by of missed chances with people who have changed you a thousand times and now circumstances have changed. you can never build back what was washed away by your own inaction. they'll never be able to meet you like they did the first time if you don't choose to meet them the first time every time
Official Time Loop Post
You can never have the same child twice. How many loops does it take a grieving time traveller to accept that.
Well fuck, man.
OMFG I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING
"THEY CAN FLY?!?"
Only been watching The Pitt for a few days but Mel King is THE best autistic character ever written in a medical drama. She doesn't "make connections no one else can" or "just see things differently" or any other Savant with Special Abilities stereotypical bullshit, she's a resident physician who's exactly as intelligent and capable as other physicians in the same residency year. She hates unnecessary yelling because it's loud and annoying, not because she's completely incapable of handling conflict. She usually keeps her stimming subtle enough to hide but sometimes she can't. She loves having a furry critter to pet. She accommodates an autistic patient by lowering the lights and closing the doors because she understands the sensory nightmare of an active medical setting. She speaks in a straightforward and honest way; she isn't an overtly rude inconsiderate asshole. She misses some jokes and takes things too literally on occasion but she does have a sense of humor and she is funny. She speaks up against misinformation and parent panic about autism and other developmental disabilities. She has emotions. She looks at a video of a lava lamp on her phone to chill. Doctor Mel King you have my entire heart
I think a really good relationship dynamic is when one partner is an entirely absurd person and the other partner's perpetual thought process is, "I adore you. Why are you like this? I'm going to kiss you at such length and with such fervor that you'll get disoriented and stop being like this for five minutes and I can rest, for fuck's sake."
Quentin raised a very skeptical eyebrow. “Right. Well. I was just about to grab lunch, there’s a deli across the street that I like to go to. If—well, if you really don’t have other plans.” The funny thing was, with a different man Eliot would have assumed this to be the prelude to some sort of midday hookup, an honest-to-god afternoon delight, but this was Quentin, and Eliot was actually pretty sure an invitation to lunch was just an invitation to lunch. Margo would be disappointed, but Eliot discovered that he really wasn’t. “Sure, okay.”

Okay, so I finally finished coloring and detailing and I’m actually kinda proud 🥺
Look at these 2 babies being loving boyfriends.
why are dudes in fanfic always getting hit with freight train orgasms. why not an orient express orgasm, classy and romantic. where are the shinkansen train orgasms? his orgasm hit him like the TGV atlantique breaking the passenger rail speed record. like the shanghai maglev, his orgasm was a feat of engineering but something of a commercial disappointment.
I've never drawn in the pokemon style, but I had to, no control
